Clients come to me often feeling frustrated because they don't understand what their partner wants. It’s difficult to be understood when we're sending mixed signals.
To improve communication and avoid misunderstandings, try doing a quick check-in with your body. Ask yourself:
▫️How do I really feel about the situation?
▫️Is my body language conveying these emotions?
▫️ Are my words aligning with what I’m feeling?
By grounding yourself in your own thoughts and emotions, you'll be better equipped to communicate with your partner in a way that truly reflects your experience.
Remember, effective communication is not just about what you say, but also how you say it.
Try out one of these tips this week and see how you communicate with your spouse better

When we are in a relationship, we are not supposed to become one person.
Being in a relationship is feeling connection that chip away at our deepest fears and loneliness, but not at the expense of who we are.
Read that again.
We cannot be connected to our core self if we lose ourself in another person.
Relationships are all about growing together, accepting one another, and enjoying the freedom of being our complete selves with that person.
Tune in this week on the podcast to discover how to be our best selves in a relationship by breaking cycles of enmeshment, building identity, and managing our emotions. Listen on Apple Podcast and Spotify now.
Have you experienced this in a relationship before?

The most common thing I hear from stay-at-home parents is they feel like they lose their identity.
They become so immersed in their role as a parent that it’s difficult to even take care of themselves.
Let’s focus on who you are. I’ve got 4 tips on how to maintain your sense of self while being a parent:
🟡 Keep your identity
You’re not just a mom or dad. You’re a complex human being that has more interest and roles in life than being a parent. Maintain your interests and keep searching for new hobbies.
🟡 Embrace your circumstances
Make the most with the season of life you’re in. This may be a hard transition, but just know it won’t always be like this. There are opportunities even in this stage of life.
🟡 Routine
Create a structure for yourself and your kids. It will help the days go by so much faster and give you a sense of purpose.
🟡 Communicate with your spouse
You don’t have to go at this alone. Communicate, talk, and share with your spouse what you’re experiencing, and work together on ways they can support you.
If you found these tips helpful, check out my most recent podcast Episode 28: Rethinking Parenting Roles with Lyndsey and Brian Durst. I go more in-depth with a couple who chose to have the husband stay at home. They offer fantastic insights and experiences that you won’t want to miss.
